Extensive engineering experience and skills drive AVL's advanced solutions combined with efficient testing and simulation tools. Well-known manufacturers trust in AVL's individual, independent and highly innovative solutions in the area of: Passenger Car Powertrains Commercial Powertrains (on-road) Off-Road-Powertrains

Vehicle development

The development of modern vehicles with extremely complex powertrain concepts puts high requirements on new development and validation methods with the associated tools. In order to save costs and reduce development times, road tests are increasingly being transferred to vehicle testbeds and replaced by simulation. Transferability and a balance between the individual test environments (off-line simulation, hardware-in-the-loop, component testbed, vehicle testbed, road, etc.) must be guaranteed.

Compact Engines & 2-Wheeler

Motorcycles and all kinds of power products as well as recreational products used on water, air and solid ground demanding best suitable technology and perfect quality but still at highly attractive cost.

Commercial Vehicles - On Road

Powertrains for light, medium and heavy-duty commercial vehicles use an increasing number of complex systems for engine, transmission, electric drives, exhaust aftertreatment and the respective electronic control systems. The key is to balance this complexity with the life cycle cost of the vehicle.

Construction Equipment

The construction equipment market is one of the most demanding but also exciting markets. Highest requirements and customer expectation in respect to robustness, reliability, initial costs, functionality, efficiency and comfort are driving factors. AVL supports its customers in all the phases of the product life cycle to develop a product that will fully satisfy their customers and also end user. Together we will be able to develop the future. AVL supports the life cylce of the product beginning with: Marketstudies and Benchmarks - those lead to the Specification of the Concept Studies and ...

Integrated and Open Development Platform (IODP)

IODP stands for an Integrated and Open Development Platform, that gives you immediate access to the entire knowledge and skill-set from simulation and testing departments within your organization. The foundation for this to work is the interconnection of all elements in the vehicle development proccess - independent of tools or suppliers.
